Story
I need to find a new home for my son’s cat. He moved and is unable to have pets and I am allergic to cats. I need to find a new home for little Benzi as soon as possible he’s a little shy at first until he gets to know you then he is the sweetest cat you will ever know. Benzi is about 3 years old. No bad behaviors. Very sweet loving cat.

Story
Atticus is pretty much a perfect pet. He is playful and curious, but also very laid back. He loves to run on the cat wheel (after he gets off, he likes to check himself out in the mirror). His beautiful grey coat is so soft. The only reason he needs to find a new home is due to the home currently having too many cats. Atticus started as a foster kitten in 2023. He is now 3 years old. He’s never had any behavioral issues. He will be missed greatly by his current family but they know it is best for him to find a less crowded home.

Story
As an adventurous kitten in 2023, Scout broke her back leg and needed emergency surgery. She was adopted by her foster family so they could take care of her care and medical costs. She recovered quickly and you can no longer tell which leg was broken. Scout is playful, extremely affectionate (she will “ask” to be held), and she likes to play catch with her little mouse toys. Her current family would love to keep her, but have too many cats.

Story
Boo is a survivor of FIP. He was diagnosed as a kitten in 2023 and adopted by his foster family so they could care for him. After two rounds of treatment, Boo was deemed cured one year ago and is now a healthy boy. He is loved by his adoptive family immensely but they know he needs a forever home with fewer pets so he can be given more attention. Whether from the trauma of all of his treatment or wanting to mark his territory due to having too many other cats around, Boo will occasionally urinate outside the litter box. He is a very sweet, gentle boy. He is shy and needs time to warm up, but he loves attention and showing off. There was a period of one year after he was cured until he could receive the rest of his vaccines. He is now able to have them and will be vaccinated by his current family prior to adoption.

Story
Hello! Me and my girlfriend found this *beautiful* baby girl on our driveway the other day and immediately took her to our nearest vet clinic to check if she'd been chipped, but unfortunately she wasn't. We're also not quite sure what mix she is. However, while we were at the vet we were able to confirm that she had been fixed, but we're still unsure about whether or not she's gotten her shots. She is (surprisingly) incredibly well adapted/socialized judging by how quickly she started to nudge our hands and lets us carry her. We did give her a bath as soon as we got back from the vet, and aside from some sad (but very cute) whines and complaints, she was relatively cooperative. We currently have 2 cats (large orange boys) that are quite a bit older than her, and we're unfortunately not quite in a position to adopt another as much as we'd want to. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions! We hope we're able to find her a home soon!

Story
Eva is about 10 years old. We had just recently gotten her from a family friend who was not able to care for her. Unfortunately, we are not able to keep her because we have two other cats with us in our apartment. Eva can be very timid but once she gets to know you she becomes very attached. She does well around other cats and has taken a liking to our orange cat. She’s very scared of big dogs but can tolerate small dogs if they are friendly to her. She has a sensitive stomach so we’ve had to change up her food a bit. She tolerates wet food best and has no preference to a specific brand. She does shed quite a bit so she will need daily brushing. She is not up to date on vaccinations and is not spayed.
